And the McGraw news doesn’t stop there. The singer also announced today that he’s partnering with Chase and Operation Homefront to give away 25 mortgage-free houses to veterans who are wounded or otherwise in need this summer — one per each city on his upcoming Brothers of the Sun Tour.

“My sister’s a veteran of the first Gulf War,” McGraw said in a statement on his website. “My uncle was a Vietnam veteran and my grandfather was a World War II veteran. I’ve always felt a deep sense of respect and obligation to our troops. Being able to reward them for their dedicated work with a new home will be even more rewarding for us. It feels so good to give back to them, and to have the opportunity to entertain them on Memorial Day is something I’m honored to do.”

McGraw recently signed to Big Machine Records, which is home to such major country artists as Taylor Swift, Rascal Flatts, and Martina McBride.

He’s also currently getting ready for his Brothers of the Sun Tour, which is being touted as possibly one of the biggest country music tours ever. And he’s been tweeting photos from the rehearsals.
